Razorback Club

A great way to support University of Arkansas athletics. How 'bout those Hogs!

AboutAbout Us

The George Billingsley Northwest Arkansas Razorback Club is a non-profit chapter of the Razorback Foundation supporting University of Arkansas men’s and women’s athletics.

The club is named after former prominent local businessman and staunch Razorback and University of Arkansas supporter George Billingsley, who initially founded the club in the 1960’s. Club membership consists of over 1,100 households throughout the Northwest Arkansas area, from Fayetteville to Bella Vista, Gravette to Eureka Springs.

Numerous club events are held during the year to raise funds for the Razorback Foundation, including banquets featuring various University of Arkansas coaches, an annual golf scramble and networking functions throughout the area.

Annual club membership fee is $10 per member or membership in the Razorback Foundation (www.razorbackfoundation.net) also covers this local club fee.
